Leaving on a Jet Plane

Well, quite a long time I never write any blog. So where have I been ?

I have been travel to a lot of beautiful places and countries. It seems quite happening year for me since 2012 till recently due to health reason have to rest at home. So, have the time to write blog over here.

Feb 2012 : Europe - Netherland, Germany and Belgium
July 2012 : Malaysia - Langkawi

Aug-Oct 2012: USA - California

Dec 2012: Thailand - Hatyai

Jan 2013: Taiwan - North, South, Central

Feb 2013: Thailand - Bangkok, Changmai, Changlai, Golden Triangle & Loas boarder

It was very fun to travel around with someone that you love, family and dear friend (a.k.a Mr. Lingling).

I love antique buildings in Europe, especially in Belgium. Enjoy walking there although it was cold in the winter. So that I can have sight seeing while walking on the streets.

In Taiwan, I love the free and easy time with my boyfriend as we travel to night markets and some town area my own. For me, I know chinese and my dear is a street smarter. I feel very comfortable to travel ourselves here :)

The best of the bubble milk tea we ever try is "Tian Ren" at Taipei. It is fresh and not so sweet as the rest and can really taste the TEA.

Working oversea without family and friends around it is different feeling. Is kinda of mix feeling, got up and down. When I was in Big apple country, uncle Tony told me when I was last day work there. He says "We just start getting to know each other and so fast have to say good bye." Ya, time flies. Another I feel regret is I dont't have a chance to take picture together with my counterpart designer. Uncle Lynn taught me a lot of things which I felt lucky to have a chance to travel oversea to work with US folks. A lot nice people here and they are very experience in this field.

Thailand, of course massage and foods !! You can have pleanty of seafood and it cost you half of cost in Msia. I just feel HOT and HUMID there. Travel at the wrong period and sweat a lot.

color of my life

Woohoo! I just have my pendicure and manicure again!
Well this is not my 1st time to have my pendicure but it's my first time to have manicure.

I have been spotted the nail color shop 1 yr ago, everytime want to try out always full and i'm in the rush can't manage to make it. Finally, today i drop by the shop and made appointment. They're having promotion for first trial new customer, this is why I give a try on their service. The cost for first time is MYR45 for pendicure and manicure.CHEAP! they're using OPI as well...

So I picked special color for my pendicure, give a bling. While as for manicure I have choosen a light pink as I don't wish to show off my fingers at work place. Haha, my boyfriend was shocked when he saw my foot nails color... he was like " oh my god! what.."

Here is the picture why he said so:

Overall, I think the service is not bad. However, I think I'll choose to go back to the previous nail color shop.

> Pro: Using OPI nail colors, cheap for 1st trial customer, marketing trend sign up for course
> Con: didn't provide scrubs, lack of message

I found there's one good magazine that can share yo all of you.. "SHAPE" magazine. I like the articles, they talk about working people stress, healthy foods and most importantly sports (how to tone up your body with some easy steps exercise). Event their website is good and full will informations and exercise clips to show how to do it. You can check it out the link from here. Another good news is that Ray having local malaysia/singapore english edition, starting from Sept issue. It's even more better for those can't read japanase/chinese.

Pretty Girl Rock! (part1)

-I can do the pretty girl rock, rock. Rock to the pretty girl rock, rock, rock ..Now, what's your name?-

Sound familiar? Yeah, it is the lyrics from Keri Hilson-Pretty girl rock.


It has been very eventful month for me. When hear about competition and win free stuffs. Put up my hand and say "Pick me pick me!". Haha. Actually I have joined of the beauty events: Shu Uemura 'Nova Diva' contest and "M.A.C ME Over". Both are my fav make up cosmetic brand.

Part 1: Shu Uemura Nova Diva

I love the details of the eye make up from Shu, it is like an art work. I love their lash design, so special. Their false lashes are expensive but their design quite unique.

When I see Facebook Shu Uemura M'sia is advertising the new range of products and message below :

"Print out this e-voucher to get a complete Nova Diva look by our beauty stylist. Snap a picture of your finished look & upload it on our fan page with a caption telling us why you are a Nova Diva and stand a chance to win 1 of 5 Nova Diva Palette worth RM290 each! *no purchase or votes necessary*"

Woah, open my eye big and wide. Since no purchase or votes necessary, why not give a try and join for fun? In fact, my HE got a new hobby and got himself a new professional camera. I asked him to be my camera man. He said" Yes". It was fun and great thing both of us can do things together, yeah!

Here is my Nova Diva pictures :)

Click here to see the Nova Diva products review.

I'm not sure the contest result yet. But, I just join for fun. If didn't get it is okay for me. By the way, the blusher colour is very nice and I got myself one after trying it. The new range of Shu is using different casing, so I have to get myself 1 new casing as well. Ha this is how they make money and how women spend:p

stay tune.. i going to post my M.A.C over me next round. see ya..

人生如戏，戏如人生

Hello, I just change my blog templete. Something new ya.

Have been watching HK TVB series quite sometimes. It seem like some real story happened in real like is similar to the drama series or another way .人生如戏，戏如人生.
Good and bad things happened. Sometimes you can't change a person, so why do you care? People like to compare and copy cat, just let it be.

I saw few music videos.. like 'Pink-Fucking perfect', 'Christina Aguilera- beautiful' .The story of the music video is to tell us to love yourself more. Just be what you are and happy what you have. Some of girls because compare will others and want to slim downwith shortcut. They try extreme diet, drugs without exercise or whatever to achieve the way they want it. whatever.. finger cross no side-effect..Appreciate your life.

Below is the link for the music video:

Happy Chinese New Year 2011! & More Beauty Products!!

Happy Chinese New Year! Rabbit year! Yeah....OK, got little of ang pow money and sponsors from my darling. Time to go to do pedicure and a little bit shopping?

I went for pedicure today, Yeah! Very happy. Normally I will choose unique nail color from OPI. Haha! Since I'm paying for it, of course I want something special. Also removed the thick dead skin under my foot. Ahhh! My left foot not so pain anymore. I think OPI nail color has its quality and of course the price not cheap ya. As usual, I went to the shop I always go "Nail Hansen". Well, their business not bad; every time I went there sure got many customers. So my dear had help me to do appointment through phone. The pedicure package come with nail shaping, remove dead skin, scrub, nail color and nail design. Price? reasonable MYR45. Here's the pictures:

I also do a little bit shopping. Again, very in love with Japanese beauty products. I went to drug store to get Marjolica eyeliner pencil and accidentally saw their LE blusher has been released! The packaging look so lovely. I thought it will release later but not so soon. I just saw it from "Spring" Japanese magazine, March 2011. Just can't believe so fast release in M'sia. The color sold out very fast and left 2 chooices. So i get myself PK301, which not so pinkish. It is like mixture of pink with orange? This color is different from the normal basic color they use to have.

Besides that I also pass by "The Face Shop", a korean brand. I remembered during my last trip in Korea, I did manage to buy skin care products. I bought the rice cleansing foam, and eye-remover (smell nice and effective remove the waterproof eyeshadow/mascara), and BB cream. The packaging is different compared here in M'sia. Price definately cheaper than M'sia. Oh ya! I almost forgot to mention that they are having Valentine's day promotion. I bought myself make-up based and compact power for only MYR79! The make-up based is mousse type and it looked like Shu Uemura make-up base as the size look double of it. Price is MYR69. The sales girl claims that it can smoothen the skin/pores and oil control effect. So let me try first and I will review on it. The individual price is MYR69 for base and MYR39 for the compact. Here is the picture for the things I bought today :)

Haha... my dear went to HKG for CNY and he also bought me some goodies from HKG.

Neutrogena oil free eye make-up remover (Yay! I love this! Very effective), Luvshuca lip gloss, Spring false lashes, SKII toner and Muji container.

Phew, I think I've shared enough this round... will let you know the review on the products next time!

An event, a book and my mistakes

"If you work nonstop without a break...worry about offending others and back down too easily...explain too much when asked for information... or "poll" your friends and colleagues before making a decision, chances are you have been bypassed for promotions and ignored when you expressed your ideas. Although you may not be aware of it, girlish behaviors such as these are sabotaging your career! "- Dr. Lois Frankel

Wow, I almost forgot my blogger log-in. Again, long time i never update my blog.

I almost finished reading one of the book I bought recently, "Nice girls don't get The office corner office 101, Unconscious mistakes women make that sabotage their career" by Lois P.Frankel, PhD. Well, I pretty agreed what the author said. She shared alot of common mistakes women made in their career. In this book she also gave advice and coaching tips . When I reading those mistakes and the stories, I feel like " it is so like me! OMG, I did this mistake in before". I like the 'Chapter 2: How you Play the Game' and 'Chapter 8: How you Respond'. Okay, this is just a short preview for this book and I will share more or some good points when i finished all. Not promoting this book but personally think that it is good books. Thanks for my dear, he noticed this book at my hometown bookstore when we are on the way back to penang during last trip.

There's an International Beauty Expo, IBE in penang 27-29 Nov. I was there and managed to grab some cheap stuffs. 1 box of Eyebelieve fake eyelashes (8MYR/dozen, is very cheap!) and Schwarzkopf conditioner (50% off) and F.O.X eyeshadow (35MYR). But wondering when can I use my fake lashes? hmm.. Besides that, there's invited 3 taiwanese celebrities/make-up artist. For those who got watch TVBS TV program" 女人我最大", you will know who is 柳燕老师, 小凯老师and Vivian Ho.

Here is the picture to show you in case you don't know. From right Vivian, 小凯, __ ,

柳燕, follow by uncle don't know his name (left). haha. :D

I had attend the talk given by make-up artist 小凯, and he demostrate how to do HD make-up. Interesting , everything goes Hign Defination HD, even HD make-up huh? Basically, just show you how to do make-up that can make your skin look like got inner shine and flawless effect by using some so called HD make-up products? even under HD camera, you also can look flawless in the photo. aha...Here are the pictures I taken, HD make-up:

Well that's pretty much here...
